By LAURIE DELATER If you're a student staying in a double room in a traditional resident hall, ex- pect to pay about $130 more for your room next year. The University regents approved a 5 percent rate hike yesterday, which will boost housing bills an extra $105 to $158 for students in West Quad, Markley, and other traditonal dorms. RATES increased 5.8 percent for non- traditional housing, which includes Fletcher Hall, Baits and Oxford, and 3 percent for married student housing. Regent Deane Baker (D-Ann Arbor) voted for the hike, but said the increase for non-traditional halls was too high given their 15 percent vacancy rate. Housing director Robert Hughes said the increase was needed to cover operating costs and improvements in those halls. Hughes also said the division hopes to cut down the vacancy rate in the dorms and attract more students by conver- ting a number of double rooms into singles. HENRY Johnson, vice president for student services, said the University was keeping the rate increase for Gemay'el seeks Saudi intervention in Beirut married students low to keep campus housing competitive with off-campus spots. Hughes said the difference in rate in- creases does not mean single students are subsidizing the housing costs of married students, as both types of housing are on completely separate budgets. CHANGES IN the works for some residence halls after spring break in- clude a chance to get three meals a day. Stockwell and East Quad residents will be able to sign up for an extra meal a day, under an arrangement that has become popular in West Quad, Bursely, and Markley. .Another change in student housing will let off-campus students open up cash-credit accounts with a dorm next fall and pay for any meals they eat out of their account. Later in the meeting, the regents got some bad news about efforts to recruit black students on campus. According to a report by the Office of Affirmative Action, black enrollment dropped from 5.2 percent in 1982, to 4.9 percent last fall. The attrition rate for black un- dergraduates has improved slightly, from 50 percent to 45.6 percent, but it is still far greater than the 28 percent of whites who fail to graduate. B( ker rate hike too large (Continued from Page 1) with us and Gemayel," Jumblatt said in the telephone interview from Damascus Syria, which was broadcast by In- dependent Television News in London. "Gemayel is to be judged for crimes against the Lebanese people . . there is no way to have a deal with Gemayel." In Tel Aviv, Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir said abrogation of the May 17 Israel-Lebanon accord would jeopardize any future peace agreemen- ts between Israel and its Arab neigh- bors. "IF THIS IS abrogated by a Lebanese institution or president under pressure from a hostile and most extreme state it will be a catastrophe, first for the sovereignty and independence of Lebanon and secondly for the chances of peace in the region," he said in a television interview. Gemayel dispatched Foregin Minister Elie Salem to the Saudi capital of Riyadh, where Salem met im- mediately with Foreign Minister Prin- ce Saud al-Faisal. Beirut radio stations said Salem would plead with Saudi King Fahd's government to intercede with Syria. Arab diplomatic sources in Riyadh said Gemayel was seeking assurances that Syria would honor the Saudi plan, which also calls for an eventual Syrian withdrawal from Lebanon. The plan also was said to seek to end the fighting in Lebanon and to install a U.N. force in place of the American, Italian and French peacekeeping troops in Beirut. SYRIAN-SUPPORTED Druze Moslem rebels maintained intense pressure on Gemayel by tightening their hold on a swath of coastline bet- ween Beirut and the Damour River, 5 miles south of the U.S. Marine base at Beirut International Airport. The Lebanese army, demoralized and down to half of its strength of two weeks ago, lost the territory Tuesday and Wednesday. Remnants of the Four- th Brigade remained trapped between Damour and Israeli lines, 24 miles, south of Beirut. Radio reports said rebels were massing for an attack on government troops holding Souk El Gharb, the ar- my's last remaining stronghold, located on a southeast mountain ridge overlooking the presidential palace, the Ministry of Defense and the U.S. am- bassador's residence in the Beirut suburbs. "IF SOME political breakthrough is not arrived at, they will send out another message," said a Western source close to the. conflict, "and they will probably attack Souk El Gharb." The army, aided by U.S. naval bom- bardments, held the village against in- tense rebel assaults last September. Most of the remaining Lebanese ar- my troops still under Gemayel's com- mand were deployed in Christian east Beirut along a line confronting the Shiite Moslem rebels who took control of the western half of the city 10 days ago. Total minority enrollment increased from 10.3 percent to 10.5 percent, most of the increase being Asian students. While the University's black enrollment has dropped, black enrollment on the Dearborn campus rose from 396 to 421 students, and from 497 to 512 in Flint. Regents may oppose Solomon Amendment By KAREN TENSA 'The University's regents will decide today whether to support a lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of a law linking federal financial aid to registration for the draft. The Minnesota Civil Liberties Union distributed a brief to the regents at the end of January, and asked them to file a friend of the court brief backing the lawsuit by the first week in March. THE MINNESOTA brief which will go before the U.S. Supreme Court, says the Solomon Amendment discriminates. on the basis of sex and financial status; violates the Fifth Amendment prohibiting self-incrimination; and im- poses punishment without the benefit of a trial. University officials have criticized the law for forcing the University into a policing role and causing unnesessary paperwork for the already overworked financial aid office. The regents had discussed the law in December and January, but decided to delay taking a stand on its con- stitutionality until they had a chance to review the Minnesota brief. The board is also expected to approve the merger of LSA's Department of Computer and Communications Scien- ces with the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering. The merger, which will place all University computer instruction in the College of Engineering, is meant to eliminate overlapping classes. If approved, the merger will take ef- feet July 1. The new Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Engineering will temporarily be located in the East Engineering building before moving to North Cam- pus.

Guglielmo Marconi was able to see communications rev- olutionized by his development of the first successful system of radio telegraphy-the wireless. His first experimental transmis- sions were no more than a few feet. But, within a quarter of a century, he had advanced his system to the point that a radio message sent from England could be received in Australia. E-Systems scientists and engineers continue to expand the technology he began. Today, communications equipment designed and developed by E-Systems engineers is used extensively around the world for line-of-sight or satellite communi- cations, digital communications and applications requiring micro- processor-based teleprinters, tactical radios and microminia- ture HF VHF and UHF equipment. In addition to communica- tions, E-Systems engineers are solving many of the world's toughest problems in antennas, data acquisition, processing, storage and retrieval systems and other systems applications for intelligence and reconnaissance. Often, the developed systems are the first-of-a-kind.
